ORANGE COUNTY, CALIF. - The Fourth Annual Prep Baseball West Coast Games brought with a series of firsts. For the first time ever the event was held in Southern California, had a team from Idaho, Hawaii, and Colorado. In the end, the three-day event brought some of the top uncommitted players in the 2025 and 2026 classes from nine states and Canada.
Players started their weekend with a workout day at Cerritos College where they were put through a pro-style workout and exposed to the full suite of Prep Baseball Tech Package. Teams then played three-game over two days and for Team California it was a successful weekend going 2-0-1 in the their three-game set that featured timely hitting and clutch pitching performances all of which was captured on video.
We will be releasing leaderboards for several technology pieces used at the 2024 West Coast Games, and today we'll start with the showcase categorical leaders.
